Pretty woodland cabin near Homer, AK

This cabin is in a private pretty forest setting. Decorated with an artistic sense and a nod to the local natural surroundings.New appliances & gas grill, many curtains to block sun, new nice kitchen (not gourmet), instant hot water for showers and very comfortable bed. Friendly attentive host. Windows need screens repaired to prevent mosquitoes entering. Thanks to the host, enjoyed our short stay, would recommend!

Great cabin and great host

The cabin was very clean and had all kitchen utensils as well as coffee and common condiments (salt, pepper, sugar, etc). The hostess was very friendly and responsive to our questions, but not at all intrusive. The bed was very comfortable and the internet worked well. We had a TV with Netflix and Max available for us to use with our subscription.

Breakfast with a moose!

Sweet cabin - simply appointed. We didn’t cook at all; kitchen materials are sparse. Maybe they’re fine for a couple. Toilet is tricky. Professionally managed. Waking up to a moose in the backyard was a special treat! And Homer is gorgeous! Whatever you’re planning, add one more day for Homer. It’s worth it!

Great Choice

This place was perfect! It’s only a few miles outside of Homer but gets you away from all tourist craziness. It has a full kitchen with everything you need. The grill to cook the day’s catch was a great bonus. We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful slice of heaven

We loved our stay at this beautiful cabin. It's so thoughtfully put together with gorgeous birch accents and close to nature, a special place to stay. It was also great to meet Dan, one of the hosts, during our stay, thank you for your generosity, Dan! This was a lovely stop on our honeymoon.

Studio Cabin in Homer

The studio cabin was lovely! It was spotless and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck with our cocktails. The fresh eggs for breakfast were a nice surprise. Also, the craftsmanship in cabin was beautiful and only a few minutes drive to The Spit! Dan and Ronda were wonderful hosts! If we are ever in Homer again we will be staying here. Katrina and Rich

Place was perfect, Dan and Rhonda were awesome as hosts.

Place was really nice and clean inside. It was like having your own personal cabin. We really enjoyed the eggs that were given to us from their girls(chickens) they gave us suggestions about homer and were always in contact. Thanks again Dan and Rhonda.

Perfect Get Away Spot

Cute spot quiet and cozy, close to the city short drive from food, and beach. Grill on site which was great, super spacious but still a cabin. Top notch decor and craftsmanship all over the unit. Hot shower, everything is high end (sink, fridge, stove etc.) Really for the $ it's impossible to find a better deal and we are very very happy we found this place. Much better than other VRBO we have stayed at in the area. This unit is a hidden gem and if you are on the fence about it don't be, just grab it. It's no wonder its booked all the time. HIGHLY recommend this over other places

Clean, cozy, convenient… stay here!

This cabin has been lovingly constructed and decorated for their guests. From the custom woodwork to the plentiful outlets and USB charging statins to the private deck and grill, every detail has been attended to in order to make for a wonderful stay. With warm and communicative hosts who recommended a great restaurant and make checking in a breeze this VRBO experience was the smoothest and best I have ever had.

We had the honor and the pleasure to meet them and take over their legacy! We look forward to sharing our dream come true with you!
